Lin Qingqing looked at the Queen Mother, her face showing a look of grievance, embarrassment, and confusion.

She only knew that the person she loved was going to the battlefield to take risks, and she didn't want to.

She thought that anyone who truly loved His Majesty would not be willing to do so, and would be like her.

But, she seemed to have done something wrong?

Lin Qingqing's eyes drifted left and right. The concubines who came with her had already lowered their heads, but she was the only one who still held her head up straight.

Lin Qingqing pursed her lips and finally couldn't hold back her tears. She didn't know what to do for a moment.

Lin Jiuqing, who had been standing aside, sighed, stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Lin Qingqing, whispering in her ear: "What's the difference between what you are doing and forcing the emperor to abdicate? If His Majesty agrees to you, how can he stand in front of the people of the world in the future if he changes his mind every day? Where is the emperor's majesty? If the emperor does not agree to you and lets you kneel here, won't he be known as a heartless person?"

Lin Qingqing stood up with her strength, listening to Lin Jiuqing's words, but still dissatisfied in her heart, she said in a deep voice: "Is this the reason why you let His Majesty go to the battlefield without any persuasion?"

Lin Jiuqing didn't know that Lin Qingqing was so persistent. After hearing this, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "Although we love each other, we are both free."

So, if Mo Xiao wanted to realize his ideals and ambitions, she could only support him.

After saying this, Lin Jiuqing stepped aside and stood behind the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother glanced at Lin Qingqing, then looked at the other concubines and said in a deep voice, "We have made enough noise, let's all go back."

The concubines stood up and left in a hurry without saying a word, for fear of angering the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother finally looked at Lin Qingqing who was still standing there, and her voice was softer than before: "I know that you are concerned about the safety of His Majesty, and you did this in a hurry. But Qingqing, you are not a child anymore, and this is not your old home. You can do whatever you want."

"Qingqing, you have to learn to grow up and think twice before doing things. If you really don't know how to do it, ask your father for advice. You will eventually learn it."

After saying that, he looked at Lian'er beside Lin Qingqing and said, "Take your concubine back to rest."

Lian'er stepped forward and held Lin Qingqing's arm, whispering, "My Lady, please go back."

Lin Qingqing still had tears in her eyes. After walking a few steps, she was still unwilling to give up. She turned back to look at the Queen Mother: "Mother, you...you don't care?"

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "How come you can't figure it out, kid?"

She waved her hand: "Go back, go back quickly."

Lian'er hurriedly supported Lin Qingqing, who still wanted to speak, and left, fearing that she would say something wrong and anger the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother watched the people walk away and rubbed her brows with a headache.

She finally looked at Lin Jiuqing who was standing beside her. Even if she didn't want to admit it, she had to admit it: among all the people in the harem, only Lin Jiuqing in front of her could understand Mo Xiao, and was more suitable to stay by Mo Xiao's side.

Lin Jiuqing...except for his miserable life, everything else is good.

The Queen Mother reached out and patted the back of Lin Jiuqing's hand, and said to her softly: "The Emperor must be very upset right now, you should go and keep him company."

Lin Jiuqing looked at the Queen Mother: "Mother, aren't you going?"

"I won't go," the Queen Mother smiled, "He might be more willing to see you at this time."
